INTRODUCTION
The Diptera type-collection in the Australian Museum comprises 3040 specimens representing 620 nominal species. Of the species represented 590 are Australian, 47 are from New Guinea and the Pacific Islands and seven are from other regions. According to published data, 10 type specimens representing nine species have not been located in the collection. The terms "holotype", "paratype" and "syntype" are used in accordance with Article 73 of the International code of Zoological Nomenclature (1961). Although the term "allotype" is not recognised in the Code it has been used here because many of the types in the collection are labelled as such. The term refers to a single specimen of opposite sex to the holotype designated in the original description (Mayr, et al., 1953:239). Such specimens are now normally referred to as paratypes. So far as possible, specimens listed as paratypes have been checked with the original descriptions to ensure they were available to the author at the time the species was described.

Several workers, especially Hardy, Taylor and Ferguson, believed it possible to designate an "allotype" of another person's species. In the collection, 14 specimens of nine species were regarded as allotypes by these authors, but in fact the specimens have no type status. Authors, such as Skuse, Ferguson and Hardy, labelled specimens as types without validly designating them as such. When the description of a species was based on more than one specimen and no holotype designated, in this catalogue these specimens are regarded as syntypes. The catalogue is divided into three faunal areas, viz: Australia, being mainland Australia and Tasmania only; Pacific Iglands, comprising New Guinea, New Hebrides, Norfolk Island, Lord Howe Island and New Zealand; and other regions of which only one or two species are represented. The systematic arrangement follows the order given in Colless and McAlpine, 1970. The arrangement of genera and species within a family generally follows that given in the latest revision of the group concerned, but otherwise follows the organisation of the Museum collection. The name under which each type was originally described is given, incorrect generic spellings not being noted. This is followed by details of the original publication and a full reference is provided at the end of the catalogue. Then follows a 11st of the types, sexes of specimens, type localities and the Museum registration number assigned to each type. Finally, if the original name has been changed, the name under which the species is presently placed is noted, together with details of the relevant publication. There are many cases of discrepancy between the collection data as published and that appearing on the label. Wherever such instances have been detected they are here recorded. All distances recorded in the catalogue are given in kilometres, even though the collection data may be in miles. Throughout the catalogue subgeneric names are omitted. The following abbreviations have been used throughout the catalogue: HT (holotype), AT (allotype), PT (paratype(s) ) and ST (syntype(s) ). When the G.H.H. Hardy collection was presented to the Museum, it was found that many specimens had been severely damaged by Anthrenus, several specimens being represented by a pin bearing a slide with genitalia, collection data and a determination label. These damaged specimens are listed separately at the end of the catalogue.
